Why buy the business if you can’t run it? It was working fine before and must have been assessed as a going concern valuable enough to buy.
Just buying it to shut down seems pointless if you can’t provide the service through absorbing it into your larger servies. Twats.

“This development comes as the Competition and Markets Authority is investigating the veterinary sector amid fears large corporations are buying up practices, limiting choice and driving up costs. IVC is one of five vet chains that have bought more than 1,800 UK practices over the past decade, according to the CMA. The regulator says vet fees have risen by more than 60% in seven years.”
This needs to be seriously looked into.

This is awful in the short term, and even worse in the long term – we will end up with no specialist avian vets
“The hospital hosts the UK’s only European College of Zoological Medicine avian residency programme, the pathway through which veterinary surgeons train to become European specialists in avian medicine.”
Presumably, now UK citizens have lost the right to work in the EU, it won’t be possible to train in Europe either.
